Election Day is in full swing, and with so much at stake, it's no surprise that some polling locations are experiencing super long lines.

Well, during a live broadcast at Temple University in Philadelphia, MSNBC's Jacob Soboroff interrupted his own reporting because Paul Rudd appeared in an effort to help make that wait time a little easier on people.

"I just wanted to give people water. They're waiting in line for a long time, and it's a wonderful thing that all these young people are out voting," Rudd said.

Earlier in the broadcast, Soboroff interviewed multiple students who noted that they'd been waiting in line for over two hours to vote. Rudd, who was carrying a bunch of bottled waters in his hands, said he was super impressed by how long people were determined to stay in line.

Rudd also revealed that he's been traveling to different polling locations throughout Pennsylvania, a key battleground state, saying, "We've been doing lots of stuff today here in Pennsylvania, and, yeah, we wanted to come out and tell these students they're doing really great things."

After parting ways, Soboroff started speaking with a first-time voter who was ecstatic to cast her ballot, and Paul Rudd reappeared to hand out more waters. "You want a water from Paul Rudd?" Soboroff asked. "Yes I do! Yes I do!" exclaimed the young voter.

She then asked for a selfie, which Paul Rudd happily agreed to, and Soboroff took the picture during his live broadcast.
